TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Dallington
One call covers kitchen extract cleaning in Dallington: survey, fixed quote, work and sign-off. Fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001.
- Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
- A system with no record of a TR19 clean
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
About our kitchen extract cleaning in Dallington
The canopy over the range is only the start of a kitchen extract system. Behind it sit the plenum and grease filters, then the ductwork, risers, extract fan and discharge, and each part collects grease. Our clean follows the air from canopy to discharge, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. If you’re dealing with a kitchen taken over without any extract records and an extract that no longer clears the smoke, we can help. Canopy cleaning, extract cleaning and duct cleaning are often used to mean the same thing, but a proper TR19® clean in Dallington covers all of it, from the hood to the fan.
We clean every reachable part of the system in Dallington: canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers and fan, and the discharge where it can be reached.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

What happens on the day
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Dallington before we set off.
- Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the system and how it’s reached.
- We record grease levels at set points, then fix the price.
- We arrive after close, protect the area and contain the waste.
- Heavy deposits are scraped by hand and the system degreased to TR19® Grease.
- Then the clean bill of health: readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next date.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Tell us where we can park and unload

What else we do in Dallington
Dallington questions
Do you cover smaller places like Dallington?
Yes, Dallington is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can the work in Dallington be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. It means the site in Dallington keeps running as normal. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.
What’s TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost in Dallington?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. To get one, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
Which parts of the extract do you clean?
We clean every part the grease travels through. That means canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge, reached through access panels where needed.
What should I send you?
Some pictures and a quick description of the system, with the address and opening hours. If we need more, we will ask.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, as well as food production and leisure sites.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7, for problems that cannot wait. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
What affects the quote in Dallington
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- What state the system is in
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Any permits to work or inductions
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.
Asking for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- A few general shots of the system
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you will usually have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Keeping the system healthy
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
- Keep the baffle filters clean
- Give the canopy a daily wipe
You leave with a date for the next clean, based on your cooking hours and the grease we measured. We can put the system on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly plan, so the date isn’t missed.
Stick to the cleaning interval on the certificate. BESA guidance links the minimum interval to daily cooking hours, so a change in hours may mean a change in interval, and grease readings will show it.
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Dallington?
What’s on the menu matters as much as how much is cooked. Fryers, grills and open flames throw much more fat into the extract than gentler cooking, which is why grease readings matter more than the calendar.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
- A system with no record of a TR19 clean
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Hellingly Hospital is the nearest hospital to Dallington, about 5.6 miles south-west.
Questions to ask before you book
- What hours they’ll be on site
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- What paperwork you get at the end
- Whether the price is fixed
What a clean will not put right
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so here are the limits:
- A broken extract fan that will not run
- Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
- A damper that sticks or has a damaged link
If you are not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Parts of the system we cover
- Plenums and filters

At about 43 miles from central London, Dallington sits well inside the area we cover. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible. Dallington sits within the area of East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near The Parish Church of St Giles or elsewhere in Dallington, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. Bateman's, about 3.1 miles north, is one of the historic houses near Dallington; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Dallington
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
